SI reported a Stillwater law enforcement official, who asked to remain anonymous, said when officers called coach Les Miles to tell him about players with drug problems, his usual response was, “What do you want me to do?”

Player Doug Bond said he remembered seeing one uninformed teammate drinking bleach, thinking it would purge the tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) from his system, before a drug test.

SI accuses the team’s substance-abuse counselor of being underqualified.

Counselor Joel Tudman started in 2007 as an assistant strength-and-conditioning coach with no experience treating drug users, no license to treat drug addicts, no formal degree in drug use management.

SI said they uncovered multiple errors in Tudman’s posted credentials.

Frequent positive tests by stars were ignored while lesser players were suspended or kicked off the team, according to Sports Illustrated.

They said players reported the coaching staff did little to deter marijuana use, even joked about it on occasion.

Jonathan Cruz, an offensive lineman on the 2002 team said in the article, “It was tied to how well you could produce. If you could produce on Saturday, things could be overlooked.”

“Weed Circle” was the team’s nickname for a regular counseling session for marijuana users, the story stated.

Several players said the “weed circle” was reserved for only the most talented players, which the coaching staff wanted to remain on the team despite multiple failed drug tests.

According to SI, “According to attendees, it came with an extraordinary perk: Players who went to the sessions could continue to use marijuana without penalty.”

STILLWATER, Okla. – We are on day three of the Sports Illustrated “Dirty Game” saga alleging misconduct in the Oklahoma State football program.

Thursday morning the magazine will release part three which is to cover alleged drug use among the OSU football team.

According to Sports Illustrated:

“As the Cowboys became one of the nation’s elite teams, players were not only using drugs, but also dealing them. It was common for some players to smoke marijuana before games. Says Donnell Williams, a linebacker on the 2006 team, “Drugs were everywhere.” School officials largely ignored use and abuse by elite players but cast aside those players deemed expendable.”
